AbstractNanocomposite films of polymethylmethacrylate PMMA with Sn0.75Fe0.25S2 nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated by both thermolysis and casting techniques. Changes in PMMA/Sn0.75Fe0.25S2 nanocomposite (NCP) due to gamma irradiation have been measured. XRD results indicate that the gamma doses of 10–80 kGy cause intermolecular crosslinking that reduces the ordered portion in the NPs. Bonding between the NPs and the host PMMA was confirmed by FTIR. TGA results indicate an enhancement in thermal stability in the NCP films irradiated with doses 20–80 kGy. The optical band gap was reduced from 3.23 to 2.47 eV upon gamma irradiation up to 80 kGy due bonding between the NPs and PMMA which enhanced the amorphous part of the NPs. Finally, the color variation between the blank and irradiated films (ΔE) was determined. Color changes immensely when the PMMA/Sn0.75Fe0.25S2 NCP films are gamma irradiated. Values of ΔE were as much as 31.6 which is an acceptable match in commercial reproduction on printing presses.

AbstractThe effects of 137Cs gamma irradiation on photoluminescence properties, such as spectra, light output, and lifetime, of several types of colloidal nanocrystals have been investigated. Irradiation-induced damage testing was performed on CdSe/ZnS, LaF3:Eu, LaF3:Ce, ZnO, and PbI2 nanocrystals synthesized on a Schlenk line using appropriate solvents and precursors. Optical degradation of the nanocrystals was evaluated based on the measured dependence of their photoluminescence intensity on the irradiation dose. Radiation hardness varies significantly between various nanocrystalline material systems.

The influence of colloidal TiO2 nanoparticle contents on the optical properties of poly (9,9′-di-n-octylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl) conjugated polymer (PFO) has been investigated. The solution blending method was used to prepare homogenous PFO/TiO2 nanocomposite. The nanocomposite films were prepared on glass substrates using the spin-coating technique. The films were divided into two groups, the first was left to dry at room temperature while the second was heat-treated at 120 °C for 1 h. Absorption and emission spectra showed that the PFO existed in α- and β-phases morphology having monomeric, excimeric, and double excimeric states. In addition, both spectra revealed that TiO2 contents and heat treatment temperature extended the conjugation length of PFO. Finally, emission spectra for both cases exhibited decreasing in the line width of zero-phonon emission spectra and increasing in the vibronic splitting energy, upon increment of the TiO2, led to a significant increase in π-electron delocalization and lower degree in chain disorder.
